Town Council Workshop Meeting

Town of Holly Springs · Town Council
Tuesday, December 9, 2025 at 6:00 pm

Work session Stormwater and flooding

What's on this agenda

This is an informational workshop for Holly Springs' mayor and council, not a meeting where votes are taken. Staff walk through four topics and ask for council feedback: the town's small-business and downtown strategy (including recent downtown projects), an overview of the stormwater management program and its long-term financial sustainability, a review of whether a recent change to when land-use public hearings are held is working as intended, and early planning for the February council retreat.

The meeting ends with open discussion and a closed session. Nothing on this agenda is a formal decision; it's staff briefing council and gathering direction for future work.
